It's two pegs and a little of goo. Just carefully pry it off. If you can't get it try a blowdrier.

A thought: we ought to have an "everyone clean their EGR valve" meet.

they are a PITA. either they give, or they don't. if you are just putting in new springs, you can do all 4 without removing them. if you are putting new struts in, they have to come off.....patience and time will have to be available if so.

^^^^
for the fronts, there is enough room for the strut to go down then you can swing the top out and work on it. you just need a second set of hands to hold it while you swap springs.
for the rear, you have to take off the 4 bolts holding the lower on the sway bar. then you will have enough roon to lower the strut and swing the top out of the wheel well to change the spring.
it was actually not that bad......much easier than i thought.

Mine dips, but doesn't stall out. Still, it's bothersome.pro5maniac said:
So umm...I'm eating dinner now (mmm hot pockets). Before I came in I jacked up the pesky right-rear corner and did a little investigation.
Without removing the wheel or loosening any bolts I was able to reposition the spring inside the grommet where it is supposed to be. When I'm done dinner I'm off to band practice. Hopefully my ride will be quiet.
